2013/05/31-06/01 Association for Urban Creativity: 2nd Annual Conference at King's College London

The Association for Urban Creativity, in association in association with the Urban Research Plaza, Osaka City University and Department (CMCI), King's College London, announce the second annual conference.

 

The theme is New directions for research on Cities, Societies and Cultures. The objective of this conference is to look to new and emerging agendas in work on cities, culture and creativity. We welcome work that focuses on any part of the world; we especially welcome work that asks critical questions of normative approaches, and work that deals with cities beyond North American/European.  We invite papers from a wide disciplinary field; multiple foci on our object of interest is welcomed. 

Our aim is to be as inclusive as possible and we are keen to give a platform for younger researchers as well as more  established ones. We will have a competitive bursary for a early career research (to cover travel and accommodation costs). Overall the conference will be free registration, due to the generous support of the Osaka City University  and King's College London.
